After running through a bunch of the CLEP Humanities questions I feel like a moron. The only section I scored over 50% was architecture and that was close. Is this indicative of first time users or should I quit now and embrace a philistine lifestyle? Okay to my real question.

What is a ballpark study time necessary for success?

I'm trying to decide between the History 2 Clep exam or the American Gov. Clep exam. I see there are more questions to study for History. Has anyone taken these two or have any insights into their difficulty. It would be my last exam. I'm getting burned out. :eek:

Some of you may have bookmarked/cached the Members' Area; this will cause you to get "dead link" errors when you try to do any of the subjects.

Does InstaCert cover the Criminal Justice test well? Wondering if there are areas to focus on more than others? Any tips or info would be greatly appreciated!!

Has anyone taken the Introduction to World Religions DSST? If so, how was it... any particular areas to concentrate on?

Whew - I just finished the Human Growth and Development CLEP today...Scored a 59 - it was a REALLY Tough Test.

I highly recommend that those interested in taking the test find some additional literature on Infant development issues as this test really hit this area hard, and if I would not have already been a nurse, I think I would of had an even harder time than I did...

Thats just my two cents...

I'm about to take us history 2 clep test in a couple of days, I was suppossed to take it last week, but I was sick, right now I'm foscusing my studies on the progressive period to the eisenhower period, are there any last minute tips for this exam? The us history 1 clep was a lot harder and I barely passed that exam with a 51, and I felt that the us history 1 clep exam was not covered well by instantcert, and the official college board sample questions saved me. Does everybody here who took us history 2 clep exam feel that instancert covered the exam well? Thanks God bless

Moving right along in the world of "upper level courses"..has anyone tested out of this course yet. I can't help but, believe that alot of us will be taking this to satisfy course requirements. Stories, hints, ideas, prayers{!}, and suggestions are extremely welcome.

Has anyone taken Principles of Finance and what resources did you use to pass this exam? How hard is it for the somewhat mathematically challenged?

I am looking to take this as well as the following over the next 4-5 months if it's possible. I am also in school at Strayer University doing 2-3 classes each qtr:

Business Law I
Intro to Psych
Human Resource Management
Intro to Sociology (anyone done this one?)
World Religions
Intro to Marketing
Macro or Micro Economics
Humanities
Fundamentals of Counseling

and a few more for electives.

I have CLEP'd: Intro to Computers, English, French (got 12 credits), & Prin. Mgmt so far. Used Instacert and 1 book ea. for intro to computers and Prin. mgmt. I like knowing my score immediately with the CLEP exams!

Thanks for any resource information/guidance on the above, especially Prin. of Finance and HR mgmt exams.

Anyone taken this one? Any advice?
